The month of August has been busy (to say the least). The return of "Doug" has caused a lot of excitement:
But I have been able to cook a few things including soft shell crabs:
 |
The ones I bought came individually wrapped in cellophane. |
 |
The eyes were clipped off and they were mostly gutted. I took the think top shell off and made sure most of the guts were removed. | |
Prior to frying, I coated them in pancake mix (Bisquick). While they fry, you have to be careful for popping since the claws have a lot of water in them.
 |
Frying away! |
 |
Gratuitous Close-up! |
 |
Ready-to eat! |
I ate them on top of a ciabatta roll with a little bit of ketchup and a side of rutabaga hash. To make the hash, I shredded the rutabaga using my Kitchenaid mixer attachment, and cooked it in a little oil with lots of Old Bay seasoning. I think it might be my new favorite type of hash.
